For the sake of a tenner you will get the right switch and it will work.Get one from another supplier and it could be different and, end up buying the Bailey one after all.

I'd usually agree with Jeff and to be honest you might prefer the Bailey original route to keep the switches the same as existing ...

BUT ...

their prices are flaming rediculous!

Maplin do a range of round panel mount switches, see here. Diameter cut-out is 20mm and the Bailey switches are got-melt glued into place to secure. It will depend though on which switch has failed as of the four switches, x2 are unique and other pair are standard SPST switches.

Which ones duff?

I think that's a SPDT switch. Providing rating ok then alternative should be alright. I'll double check on our van in daylight as it's on drive at the moment.

My mistake, it's a standard SPST switch.
Although the Maplin site doesn't show full spec (current rating etc), switch JR96E should do the job. It's mainly a remote switch for the 12v circuit.

Thanks Paul

I presume it's easy to fit once you have moved the old switch out.Do you cut the old glue out to loosen the switch?

Many thanks

Andy

Not replaced one Andy, but there isn't much glue on the switch and it would prise off with relative ease; the glue just seems to be holding the switch to stop it rotating in the hole. Pop old switch out, pop new one in and fix with hot-melt if you've got a gun (sets quicker) or some sealant will do the same but obviously needs curing time. The connections are just via a pair of 4mm spade fittings.

Incidentally, I assume you've proved it is the switch at fault and not a remote fault in the consumer unit?

I think then, that it's fairly same to assume the switch is faulty ..

I'd forgotten about it to be honest, but thanks for coming back to confirm all ok, it might be useful to others.
